Cantor debuts at Yankee Stadium


For a baseball fan, Yankee Stadium is The Temple of Baseball. In fact, it is referred to as The Stadium. So, when I got called by graphic designer, Jeff Seaver (www.seaver.com) to shoot at the NEW Yankee Stadium, I thought I'd hit a home run!


The Stadium is grandiose. Limestone and marble with a MUCH larger than life feeling. There is nothing 'homey' about Yankee Stadium. Giant entry doors, a Great Hall with 3 story banners of Yankee legends. Chrome and steel everywhere. And, a brand-new Martini Bar!



My client fabricated and installed the majority of all the HANDRAILS in the stadium. I know it sounds mundane, but the hot-dipped galvanized pipes and the absolutely gorgeouse stainless steel rails keep fans moving safely up and down stairs and, more importantly, from falling on the field!
